In continuing with my 3 month )) upgrade plan, I have now decided to replace my processor too. I currently have an e6320 clocked at 3.GHz stable. The temps are 27oC and a highish 60oC with stock cooling. I'm assuming I should only get .2 or so increase with a Tuniq Tower, so I've decided an upgrade might benefit me.
I have 3 choices, e8400, q6600 or q9300. I have Crysis etc. but the quad core still looks the better deal, the price difference included. Also, I hear there's price cuts at the end of April so is there a big difference
PS:-Other upgrades include 8600GT->8800GTS, DS3R->Maximus Formula, and a decent case and cooler (at last). Still not sure about the mobo upgrade though?
Many thanks
